Lives and living
Do cities live different lives?
Do they go through the tumult of human emotion as time slowly ticks by?
These walls could tell you many tales if they could speak. What tales would they be?
Would they be of the sights and sounds that no longer appear prominent?
Of one kind of music being replaced by another? Dances that stop being danced?

Of aspirations growing with the expanse of the cities. Of the pace of living outstripping the speed limits of thoughts.
Or maybe to them it's as simple as taking one costume off and putting another on. Going with the flow.

Embracing Life Beyond the Highlights
Time has started to fly lately and I do not mean it in the cliched, overused way. I really feel that because of the constant overconsumption of information, in terms of reels, commercials, videos, podcasts, audiobooks, TV, gripping series, and so on. I remember our school period ...
Day 4 - All-in-one Multiverse
A sea of coconut trees. A clear blue sky with swirls of clouds. Backwaters and lakes here and there. Humid temperatures with scorching heat. A home we were born into. A home we were married to. A home where relatives visited us uninvited. A home where we celebrated all major mile...
